What do you mean by "hard-decision" equalizer, and "drop them down"? Thanks so much!! On Thu, Apr 21, 2016 at 2:01 PM, Martin Braun wrote: > That's because the equalizer used is a hard-decision equalizer. You can > write your own equalizers and drop them down for better results; that's > someth

That's because the equalizer used is a hard-decision equalizer. You can write your own equalizers and drop them down for better results; that's something I've been meaning to do for a while, but haven't found the time yet. Cheers, M On 04/20/2016 09:56 PM, Jingyi Sun wrote: > Hope pictures below

We are not compensating for any lost packets, although we would be aware of them thanks to the packet number. Could you tell us if there’s a block to do this, or would we need a custom block? Also, could you tell us why the constellation diagram is not displaying properly? Thanks, Jenny On

Are you comparing the correct packets? E.g., if packets get lost, do you take that into account? M On 04/16/2016 02:38 PM, Jingyi Sun wrote: > Hi everyone, > > We are working on an experiment for a conference paper deadline in two > weeks, and need to transmit and receive OFDM packets and want t
